When Rothschild was in Paris in 1912 he
possessed S20, 900. At his death his pri-
vate fortune amounted to $4,000, 900 and
that of the firm to over 100000, 0O0 He
owed his success to his happy knack of al
ways taking fortune at the flood" and to
his careful observation of all political
events that might tend to make or mar his
prosperity. Once he was suffering from
some cerebral complaint and had to under
go difficult and dangerous operation. His
surgeon, DR.. Dupuytren, had strictly for
hidden all mental excitement as likely to
have fatal consequences. Rothschild lay
half conscious on his bed when tidings
were brought of the assassination of the
Duke of Berry. The patient Immediately
jumped up, though the blood was stream
ing over his face, the bandage having be-
come undone during the excitement, and,
dragging himself across the room, rang the
bell with great violence. s'The Duke of
Berry is murdered! Sell out! sell Quit" he
cried to his alarmed attendants, as they
rushed$into the room, and then he fell
back in swoon. By this transaction he
saved considerable sums of money.-lLa

A British engineer named Boyd, who has
visited the ? Panama canal, and since his re-
turn has read paper before the Engineers,
society at London, reports that the exca-
walton will go slower ia the future than IN
the past. He thinks for the rest of the
work 1900 000,0 00f. and twelve years of
time will be required that is to say S440,-
100000, in ADDITION to what has already
been sunk. Long before that time the
Nicaragua canal ought to oyertake De
Lesseps' enterprise, to say nothing of
bankruptcy. Admiral Ammen, in pamph-
let recently issued, cites the case of the
Caledonia canal of Scotland, which is 60
miles from sea to sea, 81 miles by lake and
% by canalization, and reaches summit
level of 102 feet, or only feet less than
that of the Nicaragua canal. Yet the own
ers of vessels are glad to save short sea
voyage of only 400 miles by locking over
this height. The cost of the Caledonia,
which is 100 feet wide and twenty feet
deep, was only 100000, The Nicaragua
passage is lie miles long, 81 by river and
56 by lake, leaving only 90 fer canal, the
outside cost of which is estimated at less
than $50,000,000, including railroad and
SVEN locks.-[ Scientific Journal

ABOUT ADV ERTISING,

There is nothing so little under
stood as the value OF an advertisement.
The value is almost invariably in pro-
portion to the circulation given it.
The object Of the advertiser is to make
his business known as extensively as
possible among those whose patronage
he solicits. If one paper makes that
business known to five hundred read
ers, and another to five thousand, the
latter is worth to the advertiser just
ten times as much as the former and
get very large majority of advertis-
ers don't know one difference, and i'm
agine they save money by getting the
cheapest advertising. There is another
matter just as little understood; we
mean the cost Of the advertisement to
the publisher. That cost is nearly in
proportion to the circulation. This
cost consists in composition, in press
work, in paper, in mailing, IN wear
and tear OF type, press, &c. The first
item is much the smallest, for an ad-
vertisement to continue any length of
time, and the cost of this is just the
same, no matter what the circulation.
But all the other items, constituting,
generally, more than nine-tenths of
the whole cost, increase fast in pro-
portion to the circulation. That is,
one paper having ten times the circu-
lation of another has to pay about ten
times as much for press work, paper,
work of mailing, and wear and tear OF
material, and were the two papers to
charge the same for the same adver.
tisement, the more largely circulated
paper would lose money by the opera
ton, while the other would make large
profit. The SENTINEL's charges are
in proportion to its circulation.
